A 6-month-old baby was hospitalized after federal law enforcement agents in Minneapolis struck a car full of children with a flash bang, before flooding it with tear gas.

Parents Shawn and Destiny Jackson told Kare11 that they were driving their six children home from a basketball game Wednesday when a protest stopped them in their tracks.

As bystanders rushed the children to the safety of a nearby house, they had to go back for the 6-month old who had stopped breathing. “He was the last person to come in, he was just like, lifeless, like, he had like, foam, like, around his mouth, and you can, he had tears coming out of his eyes,” Destiny told Kare11.

Destiny said she performed CPR on the child while others called emergency services, who arrived shortly after.

This website is so ridiculous. The headline never matches the article proper.

This one lists the headline, a few lines about it and then gives me an entire article about Kirsten Sinema sucking her married bodyguard off ~~behind a Wawa~~ in a hotel room for hours.

It's reader mode. Turn it off and the article works. I think it's a big fuck you and I don't follow links to that site any more.

I had to follow the embed to the original article this one was quoting.

EDIT:

The link takes me straight to a full article about the same topic as the headline. There are other articles when I scroll down. I block ads in DNS so it's possible that's helping.
